Abstract excerpt
Results of analysis of chimeric SMN genes among some high SMA-risk families from Ukraine using the EcoRV and DdeI restriction enzyme hydrolysis of PCR products is presented. Chimeric cen/telSMN gene was detected in probands with homozygous deletions of telSMN exon 7 only, as well in proband with absent of homozygous deletion of exons 7 and/or 8 of the SMN gene. Effectivity of approach of detection of chimeric SMN...
